“edward is a boring character” that’s your loss bc i think he’s the most intriguing character ever
#ttte edward#🌙 is talking#how many times does a series open w/a protag that’s looked down upon bc they’re older? washed?#and how often is that ‘old’ character portrayed as pitiful yet sprightly at the chance to go out?#he is and has been willing to let himself come apart before he fails to complete a job#although he means well in giving opportunities- that doesn’t pan out well for the recipient (ex. lending his train)#he continuously shows compassion to others but he’s not unaffected by apathy/unsympathetic responses#(esp pointing to the big engines)#he gets HURT. he gets UPSET. he cares about them but he also cares abt how they feel abt him- he doesn’t see himself ‘above’ them#he LOVESSS socializing and greeting friends and hearing abt the latest gossip or buzz or whatever#he’s cheeky! he loves humoring others when they’re being silly#and it’s not necessarily in the way where he knows so much more than you— a lot of the time it’s usually karmic#hes sooo . ugh. most interestingly written old character ever#there’s… so SO much more that i wanna say but that could be like 23+ posts on their own
